Finally up and moving again. Today is a long day to the camp. Mainly road walking except for a bit across a property.
 |
| Hunter River |
I can see the effects of all the rain with the paddocks saturated and water over the road. As I come out of Aberdeen I cross an old bridge across the Hunter River and can see the water has been higher. The rain is expected to increase over the next couple of days.
I come across a creek that is flowing well but the debris shows it was much higher. Some of the sights are making me nervous.

Finally I go through some cattle yards and then follow a station track across a pass called Bells Gap in the hills. I come out on another road, then it's a 900 metre walk up a road that I have to walk back on tomorrow. The TSR backs onto Wybong Creek and I chose to stay up near the road and walk the kilometre to pick up water. The creek has been very high.
I was hunkering down in my tent when Rosemary, the section co-ordinator came down to have a chat and give me a diversion if the predicted rain falls. In the end it drizzled a little bit.

| Sad end for this old girl |

The actual gate I should have taken. It has the
combination lock. But the grass and the rope
pretty much makes it a bit of a chore to go
through. |

| Blue sky disappeared real quick |
